Here's a fact most Americans don't know:
The Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO) is the largest purchaser of wine by dollar value in the world.
The LCBO has shut the flow of all American beer, wine, spirits.
We will drink "Freedom wines" from our allies and beer from our communities.

I saw this post online.
Just be a decent and straightforward Canadian who understands the need to protect our beautiful and fair land.
Don't be a weasel or spread the rage bullshit of Danielle Smith and gang.
Nobody from outside can beat us.
Stand up to the quislings.

I'd always hoped #Freeland would be PM Trudeau's successor. I like strong smart women. I think the world's a better place with more of them in positions of power. Could've maybe even lived with the shiv in the PMs back on the way out, politics is a rough game, but for one thing #cdnpoli #Trudeau

I battled for three years to get this data released. Now we know the names of the 16 companies that allegedly broke rules requiring them to pay for independent environmental monitoring by scientists.

1. I have released my first post-election anti-trans risk assessment map.

The national risk is high due to potential Republican national policies targeting trans people.

DC has slightly increased in risk. Wyoming and Georgia go up as well.

Subscribe to support my journalism. Lets dig in.
Post-Election 2024 Anti-Trans Risk Assessment Map
The risk of severe anti-trans legislation has increased nationwide for transgender youth and adults.

This is how to do it, kids: Home insurance is now a climate story. Put it on the front, and put "climate change" at the top. Especially now that deniers will control the federal and state government.
